Abstract

A mouse includes a base and a mouse body. The base has a leaning surface and a bottom surface, an angle is between an extension direction of the leaning surface and the bottom surface, the leaning surface is arranged slantingly with respect to the bottom surface. The mouse body includes a housing. The mouse body is detachably disposed on the leaning surface, the housing leans against the leaning surface, and the mouse body has a first operation mode and a second operation mode. Under the first operation mode, the mouse body is disposed in the base with a first orientation, and under the second operation mode, the mouse body is detached from the leaning surface of the base and rotated to a second orientation and disposed in the base.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
       1. A mouse comprising:
 a base comprising a leaning surface and a bottom surface, an angle is between an extension direction of the leaning surface and the bottom surface, the leaning surface is arranged slantingly with respect to the bottom surface; and 
 a mouse body comprising a housing having a back surface, wherein the mouse body is detachably disposed on the base, the housing leans against the leaning surface, and the mouse body has a first operation mode and a second operation mode; under the first operation mode, the mouse body is disposed in the base with a first orientation and the back surface of the mouse body leans against the leaning surface, and under the second operation mode, the mouse body is detached from the base and rotated to a second orientation and disposed in the base and the back surface of the mouse body leans against the leaning surface. 
 
     
     
       2. The mouse according to  claim 1 , wherein the back surface of the housing of the mouse body is symmetrically arranged along a first symmetry axis and is symmetrically arranged along a second symmetry axis perpendicular to the first symmetry axis. 
     
     
       3. The mouse according to  claim 2 , wherein the first symmetry axis and the second symmetry axis are intersected at a symmetry center, the mouse body is selectively disposed on the leaning surface with one of a plurality of orientations, and the mouse body is rotated about the symmetry center, so that the mouse body is arranged with multiple orientations. 
     
     
       4. The mouse according to  claim 3 , wherein the profile of the leaning surface overlaps the profile of the back surface being rotated about the symmetry center, the symmetry center is at a central position of the first symmetry axis, and the symmetry center is also at a central position of the second symmetry axis. 
     
     
       5. The mouse according to  claim 3 , wherein the symmetry center of the mouse body is correspondingly on the leaning surface of the base. 
     
     
       6. The mouse according to  claim 1 , wherein the base further has a first positioning portion, a back surface of the mouse body further has a second positioning portion, and the mouse body is fitted over the first positioning portion through the second positioning portion. 
     
     
       7. The mouse according to  claim 6 , wherein the first positioning portion and the second positioning portion are a block or a slot respectively, and the slot is fitted over the block. 
     
     
       8. The mouse according to  claim 1 , wherein the base further comprises a first magnetic attractive member, and the mouse body further comprises a second magnetic attractive member and a third magnetic attractive member; when the mouse body is disposed on the leaning surface with the first orientation, the first magnetic attractive member is magnetically attracted to the second magnetic attractive member; when the mouse body is disposed on the leaning surface with the second orientation, the first magnetic attractive member is magnetically attracted to the third magnetic attractive member. 
     
     
       9. The mouse according to  claim 8 , wherein the third magnetic attractive member and the second magnetic attractive member are at opposite sides with respect to the first symmetry axis. 
     
     
       10. The mouse according to  claim 1 , further comprises:
 a first communication unit disposed on the base, a position of the first communication unit corresponds to a position of the leaning surface; and 
 a second communication unit disposed on the mouse body, a position of the second communication unit corresponds to a position of the back surface, wherein the first communication unit is communicatively connected to the second communication unit. 
 
     
     
       11. The mouse according to  claim 10 , wherein the first communication unit and the second communication unit are corresponding noncontact type communication structures.
